I have an old PRT/PRS 4x8 ShopBot table which I upgraded to the new controller board. With the old board, whether hitting the spacebar, clicking the stop button, or a remote stop button, the machine would stop immediately. A little alert/notification prompt would come up giving you the option of...

I built these signs, 4 of them, 19 years ago and they need a fresh coat of paint. I gave the city a quote on restoring them about 2 months ago and finally got a call a few minutes ago. The city clerk asked me "we just want to know how you would do them". Thinking they just wanted to know what...

No, not them kind of stick on letters. I drilled holes in the main panel and the backs of these HDU letters with a 1/8'' bit on the CNC, then cut the studs out of some 1/4'' pop rivets, They were a very snug fit so the letters are aligned perfectly. I sprayed Sherwyn Williams Industrial acrylic...

A rep from this city requested an estimate for build another sign "just like this one". I just received an estimate for building the flowerbed wall and the main sign structure. They told me $9100, just for labor, to pour the footer and lay the brick. After going back and forth a couple times...

My customer wants something to commemorate/name a cemetery. He wants something about 4'x3' which will last so, vinyl on ACM is out. I'm thinking dimensional HDU could be easily vnadalized as the cemetery is at a place where it can't be watched or have security cameras. Does anyone know of a good...

A few years ago, I bought a sign cabinet from a wholesale company in Alabama. It was 72x49, with a horizontal divider/retainer. Above the divider was panformed faces and below were EMC units. The sign was two sided. About 2 weeks or so after I installed it, got a call from the customer, said one...

This is the wiring diagram for the LED surge protector from Grimco's website. Someone tell me how that wiring this thing in parallel like this is protecting or even doing anything to the circuit?

What are the faint brown streaks in this new polycarb? Brand new. Will it go away? Did they cook it too hot? too long?

I'm getting ready to apply some translucent vinyl to some polycarb panformed faces. Is there any prep I need to know about? Thanks I apologize if this is the wrong forum.

Looking for a reputable company, wholesale to the trade, to make some panformed faces and a channel letter unit. Thanks

I'm looking into upgrading some old flourescent cabinet signs to LED. Do the Handley "Kestrel Stick" outfits work pretty good? Or is there another easier/more economical and durable/trouble free solution? There is a cabinet with 10- 36T12's another with 4- 84T12's and a third with 3- 96T12s...

What are some of the creative ways you have dealt with the words "INC" or "Incorporated" in your signs? Especially when it's causing a problem in your layout. Thanks! :)

Getting ready to hang a large HDU and aluminum sign on a block wall. The sign will weigh between 100 and 150#. It's going outside so anything wood or plastic would probably nor work so I found these aluminum French cleats. Does anyone know of a better alternative? Thanks...

If you were going to mount some cut-out MaxMetal letters on a wood background with standoffs to accommodate LED lights, what would you use for standoffs.? We don't want screws showing. And what type LED;s would you use for a halo effect? Thanks

I'm researching doing some stand-off cut-out letters for a church. The letters will either be cut out of solid brushed aluminum cut from something like 1/4'' aluminum plate or we may use some of the brushed aluminum faced aluminum composite material. They want LED's behind the letters for a halo...
